Merger Precursor: Year-long Transients Preceding Mergers of Low-mass Stripped Stars with Compact Objects

Binary mass transfer can occur at high rates due to rapid expansion of the donor's envelope. In the case where mass transfer is unstable, the binary can rapidly shrink its orbit and lead to a merger. In this work we consider the appearance of the system preceding merger, specifically for the ca...
